  1. Remove the connector from the back of the headlight.
  2. Trace the wires back from the connector as far as you can see them.
  3. Turn on the ignition of the vehicle and turn on the headlights to high beam.
  4. Set the multimeter to DC Volts to measure 12 volts.

Can I wire headlights directly to battery?

In order to use headlights for these applications, they must be wired directly to a car battery or some other source of DC power. Each headlight bulb should have two wires. One wire is positive and the other is negative.
